Bo Jackson doesn't have much to say about the latest allegations involving his alma mater.

The 1985 Heisman Trophy winner dismissed allegations about his alma mater in an interview Sunday with the Associated Press.

"I don't even know the kids," Jackson told the Associated Press in Birmingham on Sunday. "I've probably met them. But it seems like to me somebody's fishing, somebody wants some attention, and they aren't getting it. I actually wouldn't give those accusations the time of day, to be honest with you."

Jackson says athletic director Jay Jacobs' response is all that needs to be said.

Auburn released separate statements and a lengthy letter from Jacobs refuting details in both reports. The ESPN The Magazine piece, which quotes several former players allegedly involved in a 2011 armed robbery, contends that Auburn covered up drug test results, which revealed players were using synthetic marijuana. Auburn has since denied those accusations in a statement, and released documents to al.com to back up its claims.
